Hi Im Looking to near complete my Turbo Grafx 16 Set. I say near because Im not spending even 2k for Magical Chase. Below is a list of what Im looking for and also what I have for trade. Im willing to buy as well. They need to be CIC or at least manual & card. Btw before anyone gets butthurt and starts whining like sensitive little girls on the internet I do run a store. I do sell video games but Im a collector as well. Im at 70 CIC and these are the remaining ones I don't have and that's why Im looking for these titles in particular. Im new to this page but have already purchased games from someone (BLUEBMW) who can give me great feedback. Thanks!
Insulting the people your asking for help from is a classy move.

Because I run a store to sell all my doubles that makes me a reseller? If I was a reseller then why would I be looking for the games I don't have? Oh Ill answer that for you. BECAUSE IM A COLLECTOR AS WELL. Do you ever think for a second the reason those TG games are so high on ebay is because I truly don't want to sell them at all. Id rather trade them for items I need. I put them up like that because if someone wants to pay that I wont stop them but like I said I prefer trade. Before you attack a stranger that you know nothing about you should know his motive and not automatically assume the worst. In the end it just makes you look like a "ass hat"[b/]
You are a idiot

The only person I'm insulting is necromancer. No one else. He accused me of being here for the point of reselling. Sony just wanted to state that before he opens his big mouth. I have nothing to hide so I'm just being honest. BTW I go to yard sales and thrift shops to resell. I go to fb game groups and forums to collect. It's cool though.

I hope you mean you sell TO those dealers.
If not, great, so you pillage our last bastion to obtain good deals just like all the other "store owners" who look like morons with their bar code zappers to see if a game is worth buying? Do you use ebay as your price guide? Because every small shop certainly reaches the same audience as ebay does, so Cotton MUST be worth $300 on a brick n mortar shelf. Maybe you dont approach it this way, but too many "stores" do. Just strikes a cord. Retro game stores are usually a joke because they dont really get the market. Or, its just a way to stroke a collection and price too high because they dont really want to sell. We have both around here, and frankly, i have never seen a retro store actually think outside the box. Most stores reach a very small audience that are willing to spend money on old games. Owning a store is about moving inventory. Too many owners will sit on a copy of legendary axe for example, until they get that $25. Even if it takes 5 years.

I came here to find games for my collection. I have 24 more to go. If no one wants to help Im ok with that. I asked for help, I never demanded it. BMW thanks for the games man I appreciate it. The way things are looking on this forum it may take me a while lol. I appreciate you not assuming the worst and actually welcoming a new member and assisting me get a few more games towards the collection. Off to ebay I go

Bowsersbasement, you did use some inflammatory language out the gate, and that can raise hackles. Your opening post didn't do you any favors. On the other hand, this forum is not always a very friendly place and is actually a little notorious with the broader Turbo community as being very knowledgeable and also very prickly. Some folks are constantly looking for threats in new members. That said, there are some truly good folk around here, including some of the grumpy and stand-offish ones (once you get used to the rough edges). BlueBMW is one of the outstanding community members, for sure, and not one of the grumpy ones, either.
I can't help you find what you seek, however, because I don't collect CIC games. A little too rich for my budget. I'll take anything that works as long as it's something I'll enjoy playing.

Putting items on eBay at high prices and waiting for suckers who don't know any better isn't very nice. Perhaps if you gave new collectors honest deals from the outset instead of fishing for pidgins to fleece off eBay people would be kinder.

This is the PM i just got from the OP
"Im not respected because the first person to comment started bashing the f*ck out of me and just because he has thousands of posts everyone else just followed suit. This is how you welcome new members? Now I know why I purchase most of my games on ebay. So I wouldn't have to deal with forums. I don't have time to act tough over the internet. I came here to buy games not talk shit. And honestly you could sell me air zonk for $50 bucks right now and out of principle I wouldn't buy it because I refuse to give people like you my money. Id rather just buy it on ebay at that point. More money but less drama. "
Off to ebay you go little one......

No, sorry, this is not how we treat new members. This is how market leeches are treated. Your first post are involving deals. You posted on no other threads, and never bothered to do a introduction thread. Its a bad sign for a member to be hitting the buy/sale threads with something below like 30-40 post as is, and when you are doing it right from jump street it tells everyone right away what your real priorities are. Said it before, and will say it again, buy/sale threads should be hidden/inaccessible to new members until they reach a certain post count. Until that happens, this leeching off pcefx community to "complete mah collection" shit is going to continue.

To echo Professor's post—I eagerly embrace anyone who is here because he/she is genuinely curious and/or serious about playing the damn games.
However, I have very little patience for folks who: 1) don't take the time to become a part of the community PRIOR to treating it as merely a marketplace/swap meet 2) only post in the sales threads 3) fault the PCE Community for not being "friendly"

This is just sad. Dude how the hell do you even come up with a number like $198 for a turbostick? That's just totally ridiculous. OP should be ashamed and really just needs to go. Nobody here wants to trade with you. We are gamers and want to keep out turbo games in our circle of NEC fans that we know will appreciate them and play them and not flip them for 10x their value. Seriously just leave please

punky- that's the problem what is something like that worth? I have no idea. so do I list it for 20 bucks and rip myself off or do I list it high and slowly lower the price until someone buys. the only thing im relatively familiar with is tg 16 hu cards because ive been researching the ones I need on ebay. other then that the TG world is still new to me.
Once again, if someone wants to help they can if not ill buy from ebay its no big deal. that's what ive been doing the whole time anyways. and you know what, this is why. I was welcomed by necro calling me a f*cking leech. so all good. you wanted me out before I was even in. see you later
thanks bluebmw & Brooklynfever nd anyone else whos helped me out. I appreciate it

Well there something that is applicable pretty much everywhere in Real life ; when you arrive to a new place, a different country or you get a new job, make sure to check the way it works before imposing yourself. You are the new comer here, take the time to read the policies, check around what people are doing, then you get a better sense on how to act:
There is a few guide lines stickies around here, and obviously, if you are into pc engine collecting like you say you are, you know how the market is, and you should understand easily why people would be on the defensive at first with a guy that comes asking to buy tons of gAmes and is also the "ennemy" : a reseller. I dont like most game shops, i don't like resellers, so I would never sell games to someone i have doubt about his intensions. I wouldnt go as far as insulting the person, in this case you, but i would have big reserves.
I helped many collectors on different forums with an export service, and some ended up reselling for twice as much the games i worked hard to find them at a good price. Collecting is a passion, and its hard enough to find some games by urself for a decent price, the last things we need is someone to "steal" a game from the communtiy to put the game at a "out of reach " price and doesnt get to be played.
I sold a few games here, and I have no problem selljng them the price i paid for, not the price chart shows. Why do i do that, and many others here? because we are passionate, and we care about those precious games, and when we say we want those games to be in a good home and love(played), we do really mean it.
this forum isnt a business and thats what i like about it. there is differenr type of personallith, but we all share one thing in common, and its the love for that one ofma kind console that is the pc engine. ive never felt so connected to a system and i do want to share this passion. i'm glad to be useful to this community when i can, and i apprecite the help from other members.
Anyway, first impression counts, and in your first post ever, you insulted and used bad language to well respected member of this small community. I don't know a single place in the world where as soon as u join a group, that kind of bevior would be acceptable.
good day senior, sorry for my english, not a native speaker

I don't think an explanation of what's wrong with the mentality of "ripping yourself off" will sink in, so I will just point out that 20 - $30 actually is what TurboSticks go for on eBay (http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=turbostick&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc$), where prices are inflated due to huge fees (and misc).
Your 'listing high and lowering until someone buys' strategy hopes to take advantage of an equally Turbo-oblivious buyer and rip them off.
You've admitted to knowing what eBay is, so if you really wanted to solve the mystery of what a TurboStick is "worth", it would have taken 20 seconds. As is pointed out too often with newer members who never leave the buy/sell sections, you could simply list an item on eBay with a minimum bid of 99 cents and let the market determine the 'true value'.
Title: Re: Can Anyone Help Me???
Post by: bob on July 12, 2014, 07:47:48 AM
...or dont look at it like "ripping myself off". f*ck whatever price it sold for in the past, what do YOU want for it? Caring about what others got is the problematic mentality. If you ask $100+ for something, find out its worth only $20, then drop your price to match this so called "market", what the hell you asking $100+ for in the first place?

Post by: slinkyturd on July 12, 2014, 03:05:05 PM
To be honest the turbo sticks I see on ebay go for around $50...but that's too high. If I spend $50 on a single game controller, it better be wireless and give me a handjob. :/

By 20 post it's pretty clear things are not going to work out for you here at this rate. So you have three options.
Option A: Stay in the sales section and take the abuse. It will get worse as time goes on as you made enemies right from the start by jumping in here, and trying to defend yourself at this point is only going to burn more bridges then build them. The only people here who are going to end up dealing with you are the shady overpriced types.
Option B: Leave. Find another forum. Use ebay or whatever to complete your collection.
Option C: Get out of the sales sections, and stay out of them for a couple months until this nonsense dies down. Until it does, try building yourself a reputation on the forum as a new contributing member. Right now your rep as it stands is forum market leech. There is no enjoyable future here with that kind of reputation.

The only one on eBay right now has a Buy-It-Now of $35 and if you click on the link I posted, you'll see that it has been actually selling (as opposed to ending without selling) for $20 - $30.
Asking prices are only that and don't mean anything.

The Turbosticks NEW in Box sell for 35-55.00 on ebay when the price inflating vultures arent around. What part of that arent you getting?
You have given everyone here a reason to bash you. Do you honestly believe people here have not seen your attempted sales gouging before? That alone is all the reason we need. People like you just dont get it no matter how much we attempt to explain it. Do us all a favor and just leave.

I didn't take the time to search for more than the uncommonly known proper name of the TurboStick. Looking at "Turbo Grafx Stick" on eBay, I see that recent used ones sold for $1 - $11 and a few New In Box ones sold for $40 each and used ones were part of lots including games and/or a TurboGrafx-16 system which sold for $40'ish total.

Maybe my post was unclear. Mine was NIB. I stated this in my post. Original factory styrofoam with original bags and manual and still had that new factory smell. I peeled off the protective stickers myself. The smell reminded me of new stereo equipment from the 80's-90's.
It was $40. $45 shipped. I bought it as a BIN off eBay.

I offered Bowser $40 for the stick via a PM. Wanted to see if he'd even be willing to sell them at what is being discussed as fair market value. So far "crickets" .. no response. Seems he will despite what he's told .. hold out hope to catch a much less knowledgeable buyer and get them to pay some ridiculous amount for his items.
I saw this guys post the day I had recovered my userid and rejoined the forums after many years away. I just thought "aw shit" this guy is going to stir people up, piss people off .. and maybe I should just stay quiet until it blows over. But glad a number of you were welcoming .. and just tons of content for me to read and catch up. Honestly never dabbled in homebrew, and due to some of the repair instructions might try to replace caps on my PC Engine GT (if I can't find someone)

Exactly! Rather than be honest and cut people a fair deal from the outset, your hoping someone new to the scene who doesn't know any better just gets taken and fleeced for all he's worth.
If your new to the scene and want to start collecting, there is nothing more un-neighborly/un-friendly than getting ripped off just because your new. This is in stark contrast to most people on the forums who actually want to help new people out by cutting them nice deals or free raffles. Most of whom, are the ones who are upset with the OP.

Just a heads-up, in case you didn't know... attacking a forum veteran like Necromancer is the quickest way to get on the shit list here. Openly insinuating that you are a reseller is the second quickest way to get on the shit list here. Since you've done both in the same thread, I'd say your chances on this forum are less than zero. It might be wise to just silently exit stage left and save whatever dignity you have left.

I love how these resellers all have the same cognitive dissonance: 1) be my friend and hook me up with buddy deals VS. 2) what I do is none of your business
Like, hello, the trade-off of getting to know people, revealing information, and asking for favors is being held accountable. Either make friends and follow the golden rule or go to ebay with the other a$$holes and pay the fees. It's simple.

I don't much get into this sale stuff, I've sold on here before and been sure to set prices to a point where they're a bit more fair than ebay, but not so good of a price that I'd be bothered to see it flipped on ebay.
Vestcoat sums up what a lot of people look out for, here. Giving, "buddy" prices to someone who may just end up flipping it on ebay, or when it comes time to sell something, going to ebay first.
There have been some messy situations here in the past, particularly with Magical Chase. It's understandable why some people here are cautious with whom they deal with.
I'd been burnt by a bad deal before, years ago, from someone who used to change their handle on ebay and such. Years later, I saw a member here got burnt by the same guy, also. That guy was conned the same way I was. Things like this, tend to be remembered by some members.
Sometimes the comments take things a bit too far, and get a bit silly, but there are reasons why some people on this forum are cautious about whom they deal with.

No we are very laid back and helpful, but only with people who are actually interested in playing games and preserving history, not pseudo stock traders who only care about buying games cheap and selling them for higher prices.

I can guarantee you that a good amount of the members here have way bigger and better collections than you but we don't compare our collections here to see who has the biggest baddest collections. There are members here who have almost every pce and turbo game but they are private about it and don't flaunt it like an e-dick competition like you want to. You won't be making anyone jealous if that's your goal. This isn't a showing off your wall of games community. This forum is way bigger/better than that. This forum is about appreciating the legacy of NEC consoles and playing our games, sharing scores, screenshots, stories, history and memories. We don't like flippers because we are selfish NEC gamers who want to keep things real and keep the games in the hands of fellow NEC gamers who appreciate them. That's how we are different than Nintendo Age where hoarding, flipping, gouging, VGA grading are prevalent. I'm not even sure what a "true collector" means. I think you meant "true collectard".

Funny thing is the accuser is the actual one doing the Internet Tough Guy routine now. Did Necro ever threaten your life or boast he could beat you up ? Nope, that's YOU, resorting to boasting that you could "choke him out." Heh.
So I found a photo of BowserInHisBasement. Better watch out!
STEP 4: Threaten to beat up anybody who disagrees with anything you say.
The beauty of the Internet lies in its inherent power to make me a 16-year old white girl from California one moment and a 6'3" bodybuilding black man the next. Sometimes I'm people you know, other times I'm people you've never heard of, but through thick and thin, I'm never who I actually am. The Internet allows you to threaten bodily harm (and sometimes even death) without the hassle of having to actually follow it up and flail your puny, bleached-white arms in somebody's general direction, forcing them to roll a saving throw against Nerd Combat. If somebody fails to support your opinion regarding gun control, abortion, 17th Century British headwear, Anime, the most "attractive" porn star to be featured in "Girls of Cumming Age 38," or anything else ever, simply inform them of their impending doom at the hands of your, well, hands.

This isn't me doing Photoshop .. you just can't fake this. This is his Reverb Nation page http://www.reverbnation.com/massaka you can actually see all his photos. This was the album cover that cracked me up the most. But his new album is called "Make Money Not Excuses" .. guess he carries that sentiment into gaming also. But as I said, I did sample his track "Light Em Up" and it wasn't bad. Not my genre of music, but much much better than I expected. And this was easily found as the third search result from google on just his fullname that was included in the facebook screen caps earlier in this thread. So no stocking going on .. just pages that Bowser intentionally made public to showcase his music.

Hey maybe Necro will turn his hat sideways, loosen his belt to let his pants sag, adopt the thug life and become Massaka's biggest fan. Not bloody likely, but you just never know !

I hate to rehash something here with you null, but I just noticed this and it kinda bothers me... That's BowserInHisBasement's face in this thread now from a public photo that elderbroom Googled for somewhere and it turns out that he's some kind of amateur rapper, correct ?
Cause when I went for that link of DarkKobold's amateur modeling photoshoot which is also 100% public, and I took a handful of photos from it, you, not DarkKo, came into that thread and morally equated the action as wanting to post his home address, social security number, cock shots even as a joke, but the point was you characterized it as a major privacy invasion. DarkKobold laughed it off like Bowser is right now in his first posts, even started using photos from that shoot to make memes, but after you came in with the privacy charge, he grabbed on to that theme like flies on shit and gave me hell back'n'forth with his creepy creepy creepy charges, that any Google searches were creepy, etc.
So, yeah, the point being, I'm a little surprised to notice you approving of this... The difference being, you like DarkKobold better than this BowserInHisBasement guy or an amateur public rapper is more different than an amateur public model ?

Sorry, I was trying to defuse the situation. I actually made it clear to Bowser that I was jokingly busting his balls. Also complimented his actual music. But it was an earlier post that showed a screen capture from a Facebook discussion that revealed his full name. Once someone has that .. anything that person has publicly posted on the internet is presumed something they are okay with people seeing. And if this does spark something for him in the way of opportunity, music sales, show attendance .. then excellent. This was very light hearted and I don't plan on making memes out of it. I was sure to not alter his artwork in anyway. It was from 2008, so is dated ... and Bowser acknowledged that. Personally if I was him, I'd lock the damn thread and hope it just all blows over. I truly believe he's a collector, and hopefully a gamer also. I have nothing against the guy .. and think this is just all hilarious.

Oh no, don't misunderstand, I am enjoying the lulz from this thread and would not deny you your fun here! I had to say much the same thing to DarkKo in fact. The point was all directed at nullity because he gave DarkKo ammunition which he fully seized upon and that in turn gave me extra grunt work to combat him, etc. DarkKo associated his full name to his alias which made possible finding his photoshoot via Google searches. Once you write your alias with your full name somewhere, you've given up all privacy and anything can be found out about you. DarkKo knew all this, his photoshoot was found 1.5 years ago because of his fighting with Professor, but he was feigning all this outrage with me to score points and so forth when I looked up that link and used more photos from it besides the one with him walking around with a shotgun.
Anyway, I don't wanna take the spotlight off Bowser the Brawler here any further. However, I will say, I don't think your Google search or whatever found his actual photo, I still think it's the one that I found. I also think Necro better watch his back, because you wouldn't want Chris to rain his hammer of chaos down upon you. ;)
Don't mess with the best, or you'll be choked to death like the rest! Heh-heh! You've been warned Necro, better back off, buddy! ;)

Seriously man .. this is all his. On page 7 of this thread someone posted a Facebook discussion where Bowser was trying to get info on Necro. That outed his fullname John Massaka Rhodes. From his Facebook you can clearly see he's into the music industry. If you google his full name it comes up to his Reverb Nation page where artists can post info, and their music. Goto the following page : http://www.reverbnation.com/massaka and see for yourself. Click on "All Photos" and his various album covers come up. That is a straight image link to his page. No Photoshop, no messing with his stuff. Check it for yourself.

Do you think he is still wondering if he'll ever get played on the rade-ee-ee-o?

Ray Dee-eee Oh.
As others have already stated, this has become one of my favorite threads.
There is so much entertainment to be found in this music/video thing. I concur—the production values are high.
I think the guy has plateaued, though.
Also, I find it immensely amusing that, in his lyrics, he has positioned himself as a potential savior of hip hop/rap—given the chance, if course— since commercial radio us filled with "fruitcakes", amongst other things.
MASSAKA, YOU CAN SUCK ON MY FRUITCAKES.

I think this Euro Massaka could choke out our Massaka. And this Euro Massaka had to make his YouTube channel MassakaOfficial ... so I guess that makes Bowser MassakaUnofficial :?

A bit too long of a video there, Slinky. Though, the ending did make that film, when Ted Danson (oops, Charles Grodin) pretty much says, "f*ckit". That's the most memorable part of that film, for me.
Back to Steve martin. I don't think we've touched enough on poop, Slinky;

That's Joey, but when he had his new nose. I prefer the old nose.

Slinky, you're slipping. no one will give a shit about that 2, 5, 10 + years from now.

Is this still lulz at bowser's expense, or do you two just need to get a room? :lol:
can't wait to get to a pc and see what I've been missing.
Just being stupid. I am enjoying my weekend, I don't know if Slinky is enjoying it the same way I am, though. Then again, I have a stupid encyclopedia of film in my brain, and Slinky, not quite the same, has something to throw back, here and there. I actually forgot about bowser, 'til that previous post of mine.

Nothing like Gus, though, his wife, her first baby, came out side-ways.

I prefer the video, from the last sequel. I heard SOOOO MUCH laughter in the theatre, when that other fellow, rocked his combover. The son. . I may have to do the same, in the future. If it falls out. It falls under, "f*ckit, I'm old".

I don't think I'll ever have that problem. Every time without exception when I get a cut, I always here about how any woman would be thrilled to have hair as thick as mine. To which I always say "I'm just glad you don't charge by the pound."

Never know, as time ticks on. Hair is fickle. Nothing grey or lost yet, then again, if I had it grey early, I'd rock it like you saw featured here, Steve Martin.

Man. The first 11 or so pages of this thread were awesome, but then it jumped the shark. Some good shit from nullity in the opening rounds, though.
Nullity did "make it so."

Post by: MrFulci on August 04, 2014, 07:00:04 AM
This kept me entertained for 2 hours or so on Saturday. No need for me to read through it again, maybe in a few months, when I've forgotten most of it. All I know is someone posted a video of something dog related, I posted a video, then somone posted something about a better dog or something, The it all continued.
Towards the end, I do remember posting Dr. Evil rapping, so that kind brought it back to when I posted Elvis Costello's Radio, which I prefer to Bowser's rap song about wanting to be played on the Radio, and that video was posted before everything snow-balled.
Oh, and I'm sure some watched the videos. I can understand not the 5+min videos, but the 30-60 sec videos, sure some curious folks out there.
This thread actually made me forget the Shapeways Turbo Everdrive cover arrived on Saturday. I'll post about that elsewhere, I just got around to opening that, now.
